Tell me,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To Be?
It was grand when I had you and yesterday.
Every morning,
Mr. Sun would shine.
At least, it always seemed that way…
Say!
I can hear that dear old gang of mine
Singin’ a happy tune.
Sweet Adeline,
Oh, baby, be mine!
We even had a silvery moon in June!
Tell me,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To Be?
What went wrong?
Why did you ever have to go?
There’s no answers…
Only memories.
Oh, honey,
How I loved you so!
Please come back!
I miss your kisses!
No other love
Could be a love like this is.
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To Be?
I can hear that dear old gang of mine
Singin’ a happy tune.
Sweet Adeline,
Oh, baby, be mine!
We even had a silvery moon in June!
Tell me,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To Be?
What went wrong?
Why did you ever have to go?
There’s no answers…
Only memories.
Oh, honey,
How I loved you so!
Please come back!
I miss your kisses!
No other love
Could be a love like this is.
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To Be?
Oh yeah!
Tell me,
Why Can’t Things Be Like They Used To Be?
